Further Information

Application Note:
Flow Cytometry: 0.5-1 ug/million cells in 0.1ml

Immunofluorescence: 0.5-1 ug/ml

Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 0.5-1 ug/ml for 30 minutes at RT (1)

Prediluted format: incubate for 30 min at RT (2)

The optimal dilution of the anti-BrdU antibody for each application should be determined by the researcher.

1. For staining of formalin-fixed tissues, incubate sections in 4N HCl for 30 minutes at RT followed by digestion with Trypsin at 1mg/ml PBS, 10 min at 37oC.
2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.

Background:
It reacts with Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) in single stranded DNA (produced by partial denaturation of double stranded DNA), BrdU coupled to a protein carrier, as well as free BrdU. BrdU is a thymidine analog, incorporated into cell nuclei during DNA synthesis prior to mitosis. Antibody to BrdU is helpful in detecting S-phase cells, providing useful information on the aggressiveness of tumors.
